I shall take an extended moment to alert your readers to the profoundly censorious nature of those “peace-loving progressives” at Craigslist.
I attempted to post words critical of the company’s increasingly tyrannical posture on free speech and the post was removed in a New York minute. (Said posting did not, by my reading, violate any of the entity’s “Terms of Use” provisions, which are themselves longer than the closing credits of “Roots.”) I sought redress via the company’s “customer service form,” but the link was dead. Perhaps freedom of speech is dead as well. I was eventually able to receive a response from the “robot@Craigslist” containing nonpertinent information.
Though I am a progressive, all citizens, falling anywhere on the political spectrum, should be concerned about an organization whose public image is so at odds with its actual method of operations. To hell with its robots, its dead links and its dishonesty.
